AT&T shares dip; SpaceX pressure raises yield concerns

AT&T shares dip; SpaceX pressure raises yield concerns

AT&T Inc. dropped on Wednesday as T-Mobile US Inc. gained. The moves show investors are zeroing in on AT&T’s cash strength and dividend, especially if satellite-powered mobile rivals force down wireless prices in the U.S. The selling hasn’t been just a blip from a single negative story. Barron’s said Wednesday that Verizon Communications Inc., AT&T and T-Mobile together have dropped $43.65 billion in market cap, with traders worried that SpaceX might shake up the U.S. telecom sector.

US stocks edge lower after hours as ETF tape slows following Dow record, Nasdaq rise

U.S. stock-index ETFs edged lower in late trading Monday, pulling back after a session where the Dow finished at a record and the Nasdaq jumped over 2%. Regular session gains leaned on tech, index reshuffling, and quarter-end flows, but after-hours moves showed little follow-through. The main indexes ended with strong gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 306.63 points, or 0.59%, to 52,182.74. The S&P 500 jumped 86.41 points, or 1.18%, to 7,440.43. The Nasdaq Composite was up 522.53 points, or 2.07%, ending at 25,820.14, according to Reuters. The Russell 2000 edged up just 0.33 point to 3,010.42, AP said.

Nasdaq bounce hides thin megacap recovery as US stocks end

U.S. stocks climbed Monday, but the close didn’t fully back up the day’s upbeat numbers. The Nasdaq led gains, S&P 500 rose over 1%, and the Dow crossed 52,000. Even so, there weren’t many fresh highs and breadth stayed moderate. The move seemed more about big-cap names bouncing than a real broad rally heading into the end of the quarter. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 358.34 points, or 0.69%, ending at 52,234.45, according to Reuters. The S&P 500 finished up 78.74 points, or 1.07%, at 7,432.92. The Nasdaq Composite climbed 464.42 points, or 1.84%, closing at 25,761.96.
Verizon (NYSE:VZ) drops after Dow removal, BT charges weigh on shares

Verizon (NYSE:VZ) drops after Dow removal, BT charges weigh on shares

Verizon Communications Inc. dropped sharply Monday. Shares fell $2.99 to $43.55, off 6.4%, even though the cash outlay for its new BT partnership wasn't huge. By comparison, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust gained 1.3%. Verizon lost around $12.6 billion in market value, looking at the day’s share price drop against its current market cap. That loss is about 20 times larger than the $625 million equalisation payment Verizon is paying in the BT deal. It also comes in at about 8-10 times the range of second-quarter items Verizon listed in its 8-K filing Monday.

The stock finished Friday at $22.72, up 30 cents on the day. That put it 2.8% higher than where it ended Monday, but the price remains 23.7% under its 52-week peak of $29.79.

Trading volume hit 38.13 million shares, about 156% of its 65-day average, as investors weighed both the Dow removal and the FCC auction outcome.

The index provider said Verizon’s lower share price meant it made up just half a percentage point of the Dow.

Verizon stock ends short week lower as plan overhaul faces investor test

Verizon stock ends short week lower as plan overhaul faces investor test

Verizon Communications Inc. ended a holiday-shortened week under pressure, with the stock falling in all four trading sessions and closing Thursday at $45.37, down 5.7% from its June 12 close of $48.11. U.S. markets were shut Friday for Juneteenth, leaving that Thursday close as the latest full session price. The timing matters. Verizon’s selloff landed in the same week the company tried to sharpen its consumer pitch: simpler wireless plans, no activation or upgrade fees, and a loyalty program offering 3% back on bills from July. Alfonso Villanueva, interim CEO of Verizon Consumer Group and chief transformation officer, told Reuters the question was, “How do we create a value proposition that makes sense for every cohort?” and added that Verizon was convinced retention would improve.

Verizon rises as Dow strength returns VZ to dividend spotlight

New York, June 13, 2026, 11:06 ET — • Verizon shares climbed 2.49% to $48.11 on Friday, pushing the Dow higher as telecom names caught a bid in the wider market rally.• Coming up, Verizon’s second-quarter earnings are set for July 24, with the call starting at 8:30 a.m. ET.• The stock is drawing some interest from income investors, but with high debt, strong rivals and not much room above analyst price targets, risks look balanced.

AT&T Shares Rebound as SpaceX Threat Stays Front and Center

AT&T Shares Rebound as SpaceX Threat Stays Front and Center

AT&T Inc shares picked up 1.1% to $23.02 late Friday, recovering a bit after a tough week that saw a selloff as the company’s cash-return case faces a new test with SpaceX’s Starlink entering the picture. Verizon moved up 2.6%, and T-Mobile US gained 2.2%. The SPDR S&P 500 ETF, which tracks the broader market, dropped 2.4%. AT&T’s investment story has leaned on stable wireless numbers, fiber growth, and payouts for shareholders, but that got called into question this week. Oppenheimer put out a warning, and Reuters picked it up, saying SpaceX’s Starlink could shake up the $1.6 trillion U.S. communications industry. The note pointed to established broadband names like AT&T as possibly most exposed, with SpaceX expected to hit Nasdaq on June 12 at a $1.75 trillion valuation.
AT&T shares slide again as Starlink draws Wall Street attention

AT&T shares slide again as Starlink draws Wall Street attention

AT&T shares faced fresh selling early Friday, following two rough days as the market shifted from seeing satellite internet as a far-off issue to a clear risk for broadband growth. The stock last changed hands at $22.77. U.S. trading hadn’t opened yet at press time. Timing is key. Next week, SpaceX is set to take Starlink public, just as AT&T is working to keep investors on board with its fiber-led growth plan. Analysts are now starting to pitch low-Earth-orbit satellites as a real broadband rival, not only a solution for rural areas.

  • Sugar Jumps as Weather and Production Worries Mount
    July 1, 2026, 2:55 PM EDT. Sugar prices climbed today, with New York sugar posting a 7-week high and London white sugar at its highest in almost 10 months. Weather risks and changes in production are driving the move. Weak monsoon rains in India-down 38% from normal by July 1-raise concerns over smaller sugar crops in the world's number two producer. In Brazil, some mills are making more ethanol instead of sugar as crude climbs, pulling sugar output forecasts down. An El Niño pattern has also formed, bringing the risk of dry weather for Brazil, India and Thailand, and possible supply cuts. Industry groups and government outlooks now see lower sugar harvests, keeping markets on edge.
